Tried Something New

 

Happy Memorial Day to you and yours.
Thank you to all who have served and
are serving to keep us safe.

We had a year-end breakfast at school
last Friday. We were asked to bring a
breakfast treat, so of course I hit up
Pinterest and found this delicious
recipe.

Baked Oatmeal with Apples, Raisins
and Pecans
Serves 6  Gluten Free

What you need:

1/2 c  Raisins
2  baking Apples--tart yet sweet
cut inch 1/2 chunks (approx. 2 cups)
2  large eggs
2 c Rolled oats, old fashioned
1 tsp Baking Powder
3/4 c light Brown Sugar
2 tsp Cinnamon
1/2 tsp Salt
1 tsp Vanilla Extract
1 c Walnuts OR Pecans-- divided
4 T unsalted Butter--melted
2 c milk


Preheat oven to 325.
Grease 8 or 9 inch baking dish
with butter.

In a medium bowl, combine the
oats, brown sugar, 1/2 cup of
nuts, raisins, baking power,
cinnamon and salt. Mix well.

In another bowl break eggs then
whisk together; then whisk in the
milk and vanilla until combined.

Add the milk mixture to the oat
mixture, along with the melted
butter.

Scatter the apples evenly on the
bottom of the greased dish. Pour
the oatmeal mixture over the top
and spread evenly. Sprinkle
remaining nuts on top. Bake for
40-45 minutes until top is golden
brown and the nuts are set.
Serve warm or at room temp.

This went over well and Mr. Ken
had the leftovers.
This is a great dish for those of us
who do not traditional oatmeal.

Holidays are coming, family will
be around--make this for a breakfast
buffet. Enjoy!
